first time to hear that

[HD2 General] Esaj2:
I was able to get the GPS working fine. However it doesn't work in Android. If I turn on the GPS and the GPS starts looking signal and when it founds it, it causes instant freeze. This is a real mystery to me. What can cause this issue? WinMo 6.5 with WWE 3.14 and 2.15.50.14, GPS works great, but when I switched to nand Android RAFDROID 4.0.2, the GPS doesn't work anymore. Or it does work, it does look for the signal and everything, but when it founds it, it causes instant freeze. Screen stays on, nothing happens.

I should point out, that I was having this same exact problem, prior the repair. And some time ago, I was still able to get the GPS working in various versions of nand Android. But now, whatever Android build I use, I have the same issue. Something in Android is messing the GPS module.

The heat is not that bad of a problem in Android, so I can live with that. I'm not using any bumpers or any other protection.
[HD2 General] stuwba68:
hi if you sent it back to htc repair center contact them again and say problem still there they should replace phone for you
[HD2 General] SMS92:
Send it back for replacement. Yeah the phones become warmer under certain conditions but I use mine to watch hour long XviDs one after the other in the sun and I have no such issues. It takes constant downloading of data with GPS locked and loads of apps open for mine to warm up! Sounds like you need a mainboard replacement to be honest, surprised they didn't switch the boards the first time and test .

I've never had mine reboot or go crazy on me due to heat, at worse the battery temp check kicked in in WM while charging to switch off charge (flashing orange led) with my cheap Chinese battery

Sent from my Nexus One
[HD2 General] dbekris:
I have heard that the high temperature causes by 3g... If you use 3g data, try to disable it and then try gps and movies again.

The conclusion, btw, is to sent the phone back for repair or replacement.
[HD2 General] ThomasHd2:
Same here my brother's hd2 working perfectly fine but mine every time temperature exceeds 33 celcius gps cause phone reboot and if i manage to turn gps on can't find fix
[HD2 General] jianC:
I got my phone up to ~42C while I was working in an auto garage and I still don't have reboot. If your phone reboots at a certain temperature, your phone is defective, and try to get it replaced by warranty, or you could try to modify your phone to fix the issue: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=982454

I'm just wondering if anyone here is getting the super amazing battery life that I'm also seeing. I'm running Virusrom (basically just themed stock rom with no bloat) had my data connections off, and screen off clock speed set to 200MHz (using overclock widget to control speed)

I got through 12 hours on 3% battery. Is anyone else seeing this?
[Thunderbolt General] bleeds:
what overclock widget you using? Just curious...

Bleeds
[Thunderbolt General] bearklaws:
I would love that...
[Thunderbolt General] superchilpil:
If I never touch the phone I get this

But unfortunately I can't leave it alone xD
[Thunderbolt General] nosympathy:
seems alittle fishy since the processor cannot go below 245Mhz.

plus what do you mean by data connections off? No LTE or 3G?

Or do you mean you disabled always-on mobile data? I myself usually drop 10% in about 7-8 hours with that enabled and normal use, with SetCPU telling the processor to run at 245Mhz when the screen is off.
[Thunderbolt General] kdb424:
Yea, 245mhz, I didn't have my phone on me, and couldn't exactly remember. No data means no wifi, 3G, 4G. It just could receive/send calls and texts. As for the overclock widget, it's just called "Overclock Widget" in the market.
[Thunderbolt General] FP5241:
I am on a stock Tbolt and have disabled the lock screen and GPS when not needed and am getting at least 12 hrs with life to spare. MUCH better then my first day of use

:)
[Thunderbolt General] quattr0:
1 1/2 more hours I will reach 12 hours. All I did was to follow this man's tips. I still have 30% left. I'm sure it's nothing new to some of you but new to me as I never had to do this w my old Samsung or Nokia phones.

http://www.phonesreview.co.uk/2011/...tery-cover-should-be-free/#IDComment136566791

I have

1. MS Exchange sync every 15 min

2. Gmail sync

3. Facebook sync

3. SipDroid calls for about 2 hours

4. Pandora streaming for 1/2 hour

5. Surf net about 1 hour

6. Xda app about 1/2 hour

I'm happy and i'm still stock TB!!!
[Thunderbolt General] kdb424:
Unless I'm actively using data, I always have it off. Well unless it's on charge haha. As for sync, I don't even sync email (gmail), or anything. I don't really count contacts or apps as syncing as it's almost a one time thing. Most people tell my i Baby my smartphone, but I'm the only one I knew that could get 3 days on my Dinc 3 days no charge on stock battery haha.
[Thunderbolt General] bmcclure937:
Uhh... congratulations?! You made your device entirely useless and got trough 12 hours on 3% of the battery. :rolleyes:

What is the point of using your Android smartphone without data all day? Is this a pissing contest to see who can disable all of the core functionality of the phone and see how long the battery lasts?

I turned my phone off the other day and when I turned it back on I used .5% of the battery... woah!! That is absurd battery life for such an awesome smart phone.

Sorry for all the BS... but honestly, why go through all of these lengths to prolong battery life longer than 12-18 hours. It renders the device useless and it no longer provides service to the user. I completely agree with optimizing the device (running custom kernels when they become available), using SetCPU profiles, etc... to a certain extent. If those optimizations impede on performance or functionality in any way then they are not worth it to me.

So ultimately, why sacrifice performance and functionality for the sake of ridiculous battery life. As long as you can make it through the day, then no worries. I charge my device every night anyhow.
[Thunderbolt General] Russ36363:
I've started using this widget as well, I'll find out its effectiveness in a day or two once I leave it off for a while (like overnight). Only complaint I have though - every time I turn the screen on, it says it's been granted su permissions, right above my dock. Is there any way to turn that off? It's just kinda weird too, if I go to show off the phone it looks bad.

Edit: I do have data usage in the background though.
[Thunderbolt General] kdb424:
Well honestly, I am around a computer most of the day, sleeping, or at work (can't be on my phone) I was sleeping most of that 3% loss. When I'm near a computer I tether so that charges without me thinking about it, and in my car I have it on charge because of the battery rape of GPS and 3g/4g. It's still a fully functional phone with no data... I can text and talk all I want. And it's not like I don't toggle on my data when I need it. I just don't see the point of being THAT connected to technology ALL off the item, and I'm a programmer, and an I.T. gupy >_>

In the Superuser app you can change that notification. Also, there is a preference for the notification letting you know the clock changed in the widget's prefs. I turn them off. I normally use a smartass kernel as it works with much less power, but this is better than not having it for now IMHO.
[Thunderbolt General] want a droid:
This. One of my pet peeves is people bragging about amazing battery life when they're using their phone as a paper weight. Why buy a smartphone?
[Thunderbolt General] kdb424:
I'll tell you why.

1. 4g tether that rivals my cable internet, and I can have both at the same time

2. I always have data and GPS, which is amazing in my car or anywhere.

3. Why no I have to be strung to the internet 24/7 and not just when I want to? It's always there, at the toggle of a button. I'd rather not be lazy and toggle data versus looking for a charger every few hours >_>
[Thunderbolt General] Russ36363:
Thanks, I somehow missed that setting when I was setting it up earlier.

Also, I kind of agree with what's said due to the fact that 75%+ of the time I'm awake I'm at a computer. I don't need to have my phone do much more than texts/calls during that time. Why waste battery for that? But when I'm not at a computer, I need it, and that's why I have this phone.
[Thunderbolt General] kdb424:
Not a problem. We all miss something at times :D

As for "needing" data, I personally find myself "wanting" it. I don't have anything that I can't let go of on the internet while I'm at work (can't use my phone for anything but texting once in a while). I always enjoy my data, and use a considerable amount of data, but it's either tethered or plugged in as I'm driving, and may as well. I guess being a minimalist is against the law now a days :p
[Thunderbolt General] lorijuan1024:
i get great battery life stock not rooted but when i added adw launcher and gingerbread theme with ginger bread keyboard i went 1hr and it was a 60% and i never touched it so stock my battery is awesome
[Thunderbolt General] quattr0:
I think you've missed the point. Noone will last even more than 6 hours if you don't do the trickle charges or whatever you call it. That's the point. I know you reply to OP but just want to point it out. After charging it the right way, you will certainly last 8 hours at least which then bring to your point "I charge the phone every night anhow".
[Thunderbolt General] Jrocker23:
How did you disable the lock screen?

Thanks
[Thunderbolt General] ACD168:
in settings, there is a setting to turn off data and wifi after a certain epriod of time when the screen is off, saves battery very well.
[Android] Mikenif:
Hi folks,

Ive almost succesfully ported a Huashan Gingerbread 2.3.2 / Sense 2.1 rom but theres one frikkin thing that just wont go away.

My 3g/hspda/mobile data wont connect. Wifi works fine

Anyone experienced enough knows what files are responsible for the mobile internet connection?

Ive already replaced:

-libhtc_ril.so

-libhtc_rilwrapper.so

-libril.so

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

PS: Ive searched my socks off. All guides and tuts are outdated and wont resolve this issue
[Android] option94:
Make sure that the line

rild.libpath=/system/lib/librilswitch.so
rilswitch.vendorlibpath=/system/lib/libhtc_ril.so
rilswitch.ganlibpath=/system/lib/libganril.so

Are in build.prop

Those are also the files you need to connect to network.
[G Tablet General] gaines:
I purchased the G-Tablet because I wanted a way to download photos from my camera's memory, view them, and write them to an external hard drive. The problem I've run into is that I can't get my tablet (running TnT-Lite) to recognize my 1TB Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex drive to mount. I've done a lot of searching for answers, and my first thought was that the drive wasn't receiving enough power, but I've tried it through the docking station and a powered USB hub without any luck. I also reformatted it to Fat32 just to be sure it wasn't the drive format. Sniffer never even notices it's connected.

I'm using TnT-Lite, but am perfectly willing to try other ROMs if they have better external drive support. I'm not super familiar with linux so I haven't tried seeing if I could manually mount the drive, but if someone would be interested in telling me how to see if it's recognized and manually mount it I'm all ears. :)

Cheers!

[G Tablet General] Pazzu510:
Kind of a repost...

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=912212

Two things:

Make sure your harddrive format is supported by your kernel. Some kernels like clemsin support ntfs and other formats. I am not really sure what formats does the kernel that comes with tnt lite supports, but i recomend to check or install another kernel.

Second; make sure you connects your HDD to a power source before using it. I have not tried it myself, but i heard that the low power source of the usb port of the g tablet is not enough to supply power to the HDD.

Good luck with that, hope you find a solution to the problem.:D
[G Tablet General] lordgodgeneral:
Another thought, have you tried rebooting the tab after you've plugged the HDD in. I have a 500 gb WD elements, and if I'm having issues, usually rebooting with the drive plugged up takes care of it.
[G Tablet General] gaines:
Yes, others have posted similar issues, albeit with different drives/ROMs and little or no followup to troubleshoot the problem and no real solution.

I believe I was very specific in mentioning during the opening post that I tried using external power (via the dock and powered USB hub) and different drive formats.
[G Tablet General] gaines:
Thanks for the suggestion. I've tried having it plugged in via the dock and powered hub before boot, but still no dice.

The best case scenario for me is that someone here has the same drive, overcame this issue and is willing to share their solution. I'm hoping that I can at least find someone who knows enough about linux/ROMs to help me troubleshoot and figure out if this is a hardware, driver or software issue. Maybe the drive is being recognized but the partition isn't getting mounted for some reason? *shrug*
[G Tablet General] Mantara:
Try partitioning your drive to 2 500gb sections. I don't think android os recognizes 1tb drive sizes. Just a thought.
[G Tablet General] gaines:
Excellent suggestion. Just repartitioned it as (2) 465GB fat32 drives and copied over some test files, plugged the drive into the powered USB hub, plugged that into the G-tablet, booted...and at first I thought it didn't work. Then an hour later I look at my tablet and realize it's mounted! I can see the image file I was using to test it...except the image (png) doesn't open. I try moving it to the SDCard using iFileManager and it errors.

...so on the up side, the drive mounted. On the down side, there may still be some issues.
[G Tablet General] Rumbleweed:
You didn't say what model drive. I got a 1TB drive to use on my Tonido plug server and server would not recognize it. apparently some of the new drives need non standard drivers. For bulk storage, the tonido works great and accessible from the web.
[G Tablet General] gaines:
Is my opening post that difficult to read? Pretty sure I said it's a 1TB Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex. :)
[G Tablet General] thebadfrog:
not only is this not developement but snapping at the people trying to help you is just gonna not get you any help
[G Tablet General] rover442:
I have the exact same hard drive and the exact same problem as well. Running Cal's 1.1 with Clem's latest kernal ver. 6. No luck in seeing it.

Also, even with a thumb drive it cannot recognize it if it's formatted as NTFS. I know it's supposed to work but there must be something I'm doing wrong. Any ideas?

Thanks
[G Tablet General] gaines:
It seemed to me that troubleshooting problems with ROMs not correctly mounting drives fell under development along with the ROM being used.

As for snapping at people, maybe I wasn't as appreciative of their effort as I should have been, but I felt like people were replying without even reading the opening post where I had tried hard to explain the situation in detail. It's like taking your car to a mechanic and telling him it's making a clunking sound, then receiving a call from them later saying, "Yeah, we took a look and there seems to be a clunking sound."
[G Tablet General] 10roller:
you try using a file explorer like root explorer?? or only sniffer?
[G Tablet General] gaines:
Hey rover442. I'm thrilled to have gotten it to mount and, hopefully if we work together, we can figure out how to get everything working properly. To recap, here's what I did to get it to mount:

Delete the existing partition using Windows Disk Management

Create two new partitions (under 500GB)

Format those partitions using fat32format

Plug the drive into the tablet via a powered usb hub

Reboot

Wait an undefined amount of time for it to magically mount
[G Tablet General] gaines:
I've tried all of them, but when it finally mounted I noticed it in Sniffer then was able to access it using iFileManager.
[G Tablet General] rover442:
Ok gaines. I'll reformat the drive and partition it and see what happens. Thanks!
[G Tablet General] rover442:
Gaines, I made two partitions. I put an mp3 in each partition. Loaded it into G Tab and it sees one of the partitions and the mp3. It does not see the other partition. FTR, I am not using a powered USB, just plugging straight into the G. (formatted fat 32 on the external hard drive).
[G Tablet General] rover442:
Success

Ok here's what I did to make things work in FAT 32

I downloaded a partition software called EASEUS Partition master Home. It was free. I fromatted again the whole 1TB hard drive (931GB available). here are the following tests I did:

Partition 431GB successfully seen in G Tab

Partition 531GB successfully seen in G Tab

So since I broke the 500GB threshold I tried to partition 631GB and it was good. So then I just repartitioned for the whole 931GB available and it is now being seen in Sniffer and Root Explorer. So it's fine.

However, the G Tab still cannot recognize NTFS.
[G Tablet General] thebadfrog:
You need a kernel that supports ntfs. Android does not recognise ntfs natively
[G Tablet General] rover442:
I'm using Clem's latest kernel ver. 6 and I'm pretty sure it supports NTFS
[G Tablet General] akodoreign:
I'm pretty sure that even though it supports ntfs, it does not automatically mount NTFS partitions.

su

mount -o umask=000 -t ntfs /dev/block/sda1 /mnt/usbdisk
[G Tablet General] rover442:
Thanks. But when I try that in Terminal Emulator I get invalid argument.

EDIT: I got past the invalid argument but it still doesn't show up in the G tab
[G Tablet General] Rumbleweed:
The new models of the Free agent have USB 3.0 capability and can cause problems, the older model with USB 2.0 support does not need new driver, so question was valid. Good luck on future support with your attitude.
[G Tablet General] Joeviocoe:
Is it necessary to power the External HDD separately? (like with a split cable)?

Or can the G-Tab power a 500 GB 2.5" HDD?
[G Tablet General] brandonpavo:
How did you get past the invalid argument?
[G Tablet General] rover442:
I removed the spaces in the command and it got me past it. However, still no recognition of NTFS

I currently have CM7 RC2 and Clockwork 2.5. ROM Manager tells me there is an update to Clockwork. I've read some things that someone needed to update Hboot(no idea what that is) and someone else said they had to change kernels, but I don't think either of them were running CM7.

Do I have to jump through hoops or can I just click the upgrade option?

you could easily brick you device doing that even if they are same brand and even devices with little variations with specs.

[G2 and Desire Z General] astriaos:
Earlier today I got into a discussion about CRT monitors with a bunch of nerds. We all spoke lovingly of the ffffffTWWAANGGGGGGG noise that degaussing makes and the general benefits of doing this action periodically to your screens. One of the gentlemen in the room mentioned that his Motorola Droid Evo 4g has a screen flicker and washout much like a crt that needs a degaussing.

This led me to wonder, "Why hasn't the dev community created a degaussing application for our phones?" After all, we spend dozens to hundreds of hours and dollars in modification to and accessorizing our phones. Why not take it a step further and make sure that the screen itself has an even longer life?

So who is with me dev scene? I'm to damn stupid to develop this application as my fundamental knowledge of how linux actually works on a ground level is severely lacking. I implore one of you randy fancypants out there: Please help nerds have that delicious fffffTWANNGGGG again.

Edit: I just realized this would be much better suited for general android application development. Can a mod move it?
[G2 and Desire Z General] leehopley:
hey matey, this would be a great idea, however lcd's dont need deguassing lol

althought it would be amazing as a screen on animation or a timeout animation lol

i can see why you want a degaussing feature but i dont really think its necessary and that's wiithout taking into account its impossible lol.

degaussing is he method of clearing magnetic interferance and other electrostatic interferences out of the screen that just dont effect a lcd screen which is one of the benifits of them :)

great idea though!!
[G2 and Desire Z General] astriaos:
Okay well that being said I think it would be a fantastic boot animation/noise.
[G2 and Desire Z General] leehopley:
